India vs England T20I: Ready to bat anywhere in the team says Ishan Kishan.



India vs England T20I: Mumbai Indians star performer and latest young addition to the Indian national side, Ishan Kishan feels he don?t mind batting at any position in the team as he feels more confident when under pressure. Ishan Kishan and Surya Kumar Yadav, the two batsmen from Mumbai Indians have received a maiden national call-up for the T20I series against England.



Kishan was in tremendous touch last year for Mumbai Indians where the wicketkeeper-batsman scored 512 runs and ended up on the winning side. He was the highest run-getter for his team in IPL 2020. Carrying his scintillating form to the domestic circuit, Ishan Kishan smacked 174 off 94 in the first match of Vijay Hazare Trophy for Jharkhand.



He batsman admitted that breaking to the Indian national side was a bit of a task and now as he got the opportunity, he is willing to take the opportunity at any position.



"It's always difficult to make it to the team, but that's how it's always been. I don't mind playing anywhere, having switched between playing in the middle and top-order in my career so far," Ishan said in an interview with Wisden as quoted by Mumbai Indians.



"I feel more confident to play under pressure and I think the various domestic formats, India A games help you do well in that situation," he added.



The young wicketkeeper-batsman said, his Mumbai Indians skipper Rohit Sharma and Director of Cricket Operations Zaheer Khan helped him a lot.



In the IPL it's important to make the most of an opportunity whenever you get one. It's the hunger and dedication to doing well that helps you get across the line," said Ishan.



?It is always good to have a mentor like Rohit Bhai and so many others in the management. Playing for Mumbai Indians was something special and this franchise is the bedrock of my cricket. I have developed my game beyond what I could possibly think of with the help of these mentors.?

India vs England T20Is: Pressure piles up on Shikhar Dhawan to retain his T20I spot.



India vs England T20Is: Young Ishan Kishan succeeding in his debut game as an opener may put up pressure on Shikhar Dhawan to retain his opening spot in the Indian T20I side ahead of the T20 World Cup that is slated in October-November this year in India.



In the previous two T20I?s against England, Virat Kohli and management tried two opening combination. Opener Rohit Sharma was rested and will be the first choice opener for the T20 World Cup later this year. However, the place for the second opener is still not confirmed.&nbsp;



India tried to come-up with KL Rahul and Shikhar Dhawan in the first T20I, but the combination failed to score runs and provide a good start to the Indian side. KL Rahul scored a single run while Shikhar Dhawan scored 12 balls four.



Shikhar Dhawan who was consistent in India?s blue colour for years was dropped from the playing 11 in the second T20I against England and young debutant Ishan Kishan was given an opportunity along with KL Rahul.



While from one end Ishan Kishan used his chance to make a dream debut, KL Rahul from other continued poor run as he was dismissed by Sam Curran for nought.



Now, it is unlikely that left-handed opener Shikhar Dhawan will return to the Indian side unless Rohit Sharma extends his resting period. Virat Kohli will bring back Rohit Sharma in the playing 11 in the 3rd T20I against England while the other end will be occupied with his Mumbai Indians counterpart Ishan Kishan.



Dhawan in the Australia series helped India to chase 195 runs in the first T20I scoring 52 runs off 36 balls. However, since then he has undergone multiple failures up the order.



<h2>Shikhar Dhawan T20I series in past months:</h2>



Prior to the lockdown period, Shikhar Dhawan had missed to play T20I series against New Zealand. KL Rahul took the opportunity and scored good runs with Rohit Sharma and the pair looked first choice contenders for opening in the T20 World Cup.



In his return to the Indian side in Australia, Dhawan had just one good game. In the absence of Rohit Sharma in the Australia tour, Dhawan amassed 1, 52, 28 and 4 int he four T20I innings.



Talking about Dhawan?s domestic run lately, the results aren?t encouraging either. In the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy games, he scored 23, 5, 77 and 0. The recent Vijay Hazare Trophy was also unfruitful for him as scores 0, 6, 0, 153 and 44 sums up the story.



However, the left-handed opener had a brilliant season of IPL in UAE. Playing for Delhi Capitals, Dhawan scored 618 runs with two back to back centuries.



It will not be a good option for Indian management to drop him from the white ball squad. He will be around the squad and in contention for the opener?s spot for the ICC T20 World Cup.



It will be interesting to watch if he gets enough opportunity to prove his worth again to the management.? Vivo IPL 2021 will be a deciding factor whether he will be the opener or he will get dropped again.

ICC T20 World Cup: Suryakumar Yadav and Ishan Kishan equipped enough to play T20 World Cup: Sachin Tendulkar.



ICC T20 World Cup 2021: Legendary Cricketer Sachin Tendulkar feels Suryakumar Yadav and Ishan Kishan are good enough to play the forthcoming ICC T20 World Cup later this year in India.



Both Mumbai Indian cricketers have made their T20I debut in ongoing India vs England T20I series. Yadav and Kishan both debuted on the same game but the former had to wait for one more game to get his chance and showcase his skills.



Wicketkeeper-batsman Ishan Kishan smacked a blistering half-century on his debut and won the ?Man of the Match? award and so is the case with Suryakumar Yadav.



Sachin Tendulkar has seen both the players grow in Mumbai Indians and they have shown what they are capable of.



?There is no question how talented both the players are,? Tendulkar told Reuters in a telephone interview.



?It eventually boils down to selection and the selection committee. But I can say that having played in IPL against all the leading foreign players, they are ready to play (in the Twenty20 World Cup).?



Tendulkar is the mentor of five times IPL winners and has watched both the players closely. He was not surprised to watch their performances against the top England T20I side.



?I have spent time with both of them and they are talented cricketers.?



?Before the start of IPL 2020, Ishan was practising in the nets, he was trying to get a balanced and perfect bat swing and to be mentally stable throughout and the results can be seen now.?



Ishan Kishan and Surya both have seen Jofra Archer and Ben Stokes in IPL games before and know what they exactly do. IPL has given a great exposure to young guns.



Suryakumar started his international journey with a six in the very first ball of Jofra Archer over fine leg. He looked fearless and stable in the crease right through his innings.



?What IPL has done is it has given exposure to players to play against the leading players in the world,? Tendulkar said.



?Now before you play against any international side you get to play against them or with them in the IPL. So, you know the dynamics and reality of international cricket early on. When we used to play we had to face the international players right away,? Sachin Tendulkar said.

ICC T20 World Cup 2021: Suryakumar and Ishan deserve to be in India?s World Cup squad: VVS Laxman.



ICC T20 World Cup 2021: The former Indian cricketer VVS Laxman reckons that rookie Ishan Kishan and Surya Kumar Yadav have capitalised on the given opportunities and they definitely deserve to be in India?s T20 World Cup squad.



The ICC T20 World Cup 2021 is slated to be held in India later this year in the window of October and November.



Both the cricketers made their international debut in the recently concluded India vs England five-game T20I series.



Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav made a strong start to their international journey smacking their maiden half-century in the debut game. The former player scored 56 runs off 32 deliveries which involved five boundaries and four sixes while the latter amassed 31 balls 57 to power. Suryakumar Yadav in his second game scored 17 balls 32 to power India off a good start in the series decider.



?Well, it?s a very tough question because what we have seen in this series is that lot of youngsters have capitalized on their opportunities,? Laxman said on Star Sports show ?Cricket Connected?.



?The way Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav played on their debut game was phenomenal,? he added.



?It?s a tough choice, but I think both of them deserve to play in the Indian squad come the World Cup.?



<h3>Sanjay Bangar's view on Team selection for World Cup:</h3>



Team India?s former batting coach Sanjay Bangar feels there is still a good time before the T20 World Cup and a lot of other players can make it to the final squad with a good performance in the upcoming IPL.



?The players who were sidelined have a big opportunity ahead as IPL and they can be selected. So I would not like to count anyone out of the World Cup race.?



When asked whether senior pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar has sealed his place in the playing 11, Bangar replied:



?Obviously, if he is fit and in form. He made a good comeback coming after injury and he will surely get a place and he deserves it.?

Virender Sehwag says MI should retain Rohit, Ishan and Jasprit Bumrah.



IPL 2022 Mega Auction: Former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag reckons that the five times IPL winners should invest in Rohit Sharma, young Ishan Kishan and pacer Jasprit Bumrah as their three retentions before the IPL 2022 Mega Auction.



The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has already confirmed the expansion of the IPL as the Indian cricket board plans to make the cash-rich event a ten teams affair from the existing pool of eight. As of now, the BCCI hasn?t rolled out the exact rules for the IPL 2022 retentions, however, the teams are anticipating at least three player retentions and two Right to Match (RTM) cards.



Sehwag feels that Mumbai will exclude all-rounder Hardik Pandya from the retention list and will only retain their skipper Rohit Sharma, pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah and young wicketkeeper-batsman Ishan Kishan.&nbsp;



"I think I would retain Ishan Kishan, Rohit Sharma and Jasprit Bumrah. Ishan seems to be in it for the long haul, age is on his side so he can serve you better,? said Virender Sehwag.



Sehwag feels that Ishan?s performance in the last match will work in his favour. The young wicketkeeper-batsman scored blistering 84 from 32 deliveries against SRH to end his IPL 2021 campaign.

?The kind of performance Ishan Kishan has dished out today, expect many more from him in time to come because is a top-order batsman.?



The former cricketer further said that Hardik may not fetch a whopping sum if he doesn?t start bowling. Hardik Pandya?s persisting injury concerns have pulled his game down. The all-rounder wasn?t able to perform well in the ongoing season of the Vivo IPL 2021.



?If Hardik Pandya doesn't bowl, I don't think he would be able to fetch big money at the auction because due to his injury concerns, everyone would think twice,? he added.



"Will he bowl or not? If he can declare himself fit and start bowling then teams can buy him at the auction," Sehwag added.



Hardik Pandya was considered fit to bowl during his selection for the ICC T20 World Cup 2021, however, the all-rounder didn't even bowl a single delivery in the entire Vivo IPL 2021. Rohit Sharma, Mumbai Indians (MI) skipper, has informed that the all-rounder will begin bowling from next week.

Rahul &amp; Kishan shine in warm-up match against England, won by 7wickets.



T20 World Cup 2021: Team India?s opening batsman KL Rahul smacked an elegant half-century in the first warm-up match against England where his opening partner Ishan Kishan did no less to brutally harass the Englishmen to seal the deal for India with a seven wickets win.



In the match where the results were secondary, Rahul simplified the opening conundrum for Virat Kohli as he scored a blistering 51 runs in a mere 24 delivers which included six boundaries and three sixes. The dashing opening batsman has announced his arrival in some style and is ready to pair alongside flamboyant Rohit Sharma in India?s T20 World Cup matches in the opening slot.



Sharma was rested for the match as the intention was to give enough game time to all the players. He is likely to return in the second warm-up match against Australia.



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
https://twitter.com/BCCI/status/1450155960643702784
</div></figure>



Ishan on the other hand did everything right to punish the English bowlers. The swashbuckling wicketkeeper-batsman picked up his form where he left after the final IPL match of Mumbai Indians. He tonked huge sixes against the spinners and plundered 70 runs from 46 balls before he left the field retired-hurt.



Skipper Virat Kohli was dismissed cheaply for 11 runs but this will be of least concern for the Indian team.&nbsp;



Suryakumar Yadav seemed to be on a rough side during his brief stay at the crease. The Mumbai cricketer had eight runs from nine deliveries before he was dismissed.?

Rishabh Pant and Hardik Pandya wrapped the game for team India as the duo added 24 runs in no time after SKY?s dismissal. Pant scored 29 from 14 deliveries while Hardik Pandya scored 12 from 10 balls.



Team India opted to bowl after winning the toss against England.&nbsp;



The bowling would be a concern for the Indian management. A few bowlers did exceedingly well while a few missed their chances. Mohammad Shami remained the pick of the bowlers as he scalped three wickets from his quota for four overs.



India?s pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah remained economical as always with his one wicket for 26 runs in four overs. While Bhuvneshwar Kumar failed to hit the deck right as the pacer was swept for a massive 54 runs in his four overs with his wicket box remaining empty.&nbsp;



The spinners did fairly well in the match. Senior spinner Ravichandran Ashwin, though, didn?t pick any wicket, he remained the most economical bowler in his four overs. The off-spinner just conceded 23 runs. On the other hand, Rahul Chahar picked a wicket and gave away?43 runs at an economy of 10.80.



For England, Jonny Bairstow and Moeen Ali scored the most runs as they smacked 49 and 43 respectively. Stand-in skipper Jos Buttler and Dawid Malan added crucial 18 runs apiece during their short stay.



Opener Jason Roy scored 17 runs while Liam Livingstone helped with his 20 balls 30.



England?s innings finished on a high as they mustered a mammoth total of 188 runs in the loss of five wickets. India, in response, did exceedingly well to outperform the opposition and chased down the target with one over to spare.

6 Big Players who will not go to IPL 2022 Mega Auction, predicts Aakash Copra.



IPL 2022 Mega Auction: Now that the already existing eight Indian Premier League (IPL) franchises have done their work to retain the best possible four players for the coming season of the IPL, the BCCI has now asked the two new IPL teams to pick three players outside of the IPL 2022 Mega Auction.?The retention process of the two new teams will be completed by 25th December.



The cricketer turned commentator Aakash Chopra has named 6 big Players who will not go to the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 Mega Auction as they will be picked up by any of the two new IPL franchises.



Chopra reckons that former Punjab Kings skipper KL Rahul will not be available during the IPL 2022 Mega Auction. He is likely to be picked by Lucknow based IPL franchise.&nbsp;



?My first pick is KL Rahul. I feel he will not be able to reach the auction. Punjab Kings wanted to retain him but he didn?t want to. I think he is going to Lucknow and will become the captain of the new team. Rashid Khan is second in the pecking order. I don?t think his name will reach the auction table. He did not want to stay at SunRisers Hyderabad as he has been already approached by a new franchise with a better salary,? said Aakash Chopra.



Shreyas Iyer, who is not retained by Delhi Capitals (DC) in the recent player retention, is likely to be roped in by Ahmedabad based IPL franchise. He is a proven match-winner and an established leader of the side.

?My third pick is Shreyas Iyer. He is likely to become captain of the Ahmedabad franchise. He is an important player and will be drafted to a new team. I won?t be surprised to see him lead Ahmedabad as he has already captained Delhi Capitals.?



Furthermore, he picked the likes of Yuzvendra Chahal, Hardik Pandya and Ishan Kishan to be unavailable during the IPL mega auction.



?Yuzvendra Chahal is another player who might go to Ahmedabad. Ishan Kishan and Hardik Pandya might not be a part of the auction, but Ishan Kishan?s stocks are a bit high at the moment,? Chopra said on his YouTube channel.



<h2>David Warner to remain unavailable at the IPL 2022 Mega Auction:</h2>



The renowned commentator also weighed on David Warner?s availability in the mega auction. He was recently sacked from his captaincy and was later removed from playing11 as well in Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH).



?David Warner will not make it to the auction either. He is a proven match-winner. He has a lot of experience, has won a lot of games, and has scored 600 odds runs in so many seasons. You won?t find a more consistent player than him,? Chopra added.

Top 3 Players Mumbai Indians (MI) should target in IPL 2022 Mega Auction: The five times IPL title winner Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise, Mumbai Indians (MI) will be in the spotlight as they enter the IPL 2022 Mega Auction. The franchise has a majestic history to pick the right players from the auction table and at a very considerable price.



MI have done fairly well during the recent past at the auctions. The scout team of the franchise keeps their keen eye on every young player that needs an accelerator.



The coming IPL 2022 mega auction will be huge, as all the players will be under the hammer. The franchises will have to figure out their choices of players and bid for them.?



Just ahead of the mega auctions, Mumbai Indians have retained the likes of Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, Suryakumar Yadav and Kieron Pollard. These players will form the core of the team once again in IPL 2022.&nbsp;



Mumbai have a well-established opener and captain, a middle-order batsman, an all-rounder and a lethal pacer to form the core of the team. Let?s take a look at the top 3 Players Mumbai Indians (MI) should target in IPL 2022 Mega Auction.



<h2>Top 3 Players Mumbai Indians (MI) should target in IPL 2022 Mega Auction:</h2>



<h3>Ishan Kishan:</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/12/Ishan-Kishan-1.jpg" alt="Image Source: BCCI" class="wp-image-81805" /></figure>



The five times IPL champions Mumbai Indians (MI) is confident to get back the services of young Ishan Kishan at the IPL 2022 Mega Auctions. Ishan has been instrumental in Mumbai?s success in the recent past.



He is an explosive left-handed batsman with wicketkeeping skills. Ishan was brilliant as an opening pair to Rohit Sharma in the absence of Quinton de Kock.



Though the recent IPL season wasn?t fruitful to the young opener, he assured his place in India?s limited-overs team with his late blitz innings against Rajasthan Royals and Sunrises Hyderabad.



Ishan Kishan?s stocks have taken a flight ever since he was bought by Mumbai Indians in 2018. He is likely to fetch big in the coming auction.

<h3>Ben Stokes:</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/12/Ben-Stokes.jpg" alt="IPL 2022 Mega Auction: IPL franchises that can target Ben Stokes in the IPL 2022 Mega Auction or before" class="wp-image-81415" /><figcaption>Image: IPL/Twitter</figcaption></figure>



Mumbai Indians (MI) have let go of dashing all-rounder Hardik Pandya, Krunal Pandya and James Neesham. The duo of Pandya brothers has been part of the franchise for a long time and were a vital cog in Mumbai?s success wheel.



During the retentions, MI retained the likes of Caribbean all-rounder Kieron Pollard, but having just a single all-rounder in a team is not enough. The franchise will keep someone like Ben Stokes on the radar who has been released by Rajasthan Royals (RR).



Stokes has been stunning in all three formats of cricket. His all-round skills have made him a formidable player that every franchise desires to own.



Moreover, Mumbai will be eying Stokes predominantly due to the void created with the release of Hardik Pandya ahead of the IPL 2022 Mega Auction.



<h3>Yuzvendra Chahal:</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/07/Yuzvendra-Chahal-RCB.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-65950" /></figure>



Seasoned Indian spinner Yuzvendra Chahal will be on Mumbai Indians (MI) radar during the IPL mega auction. The Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) surprisingly released Chahal to the auction and retained only three players.



Interestingly, Yuzvendra Chahal made his IPL debut with Mumbai Indians (MI) back in 2013. Due to fewer opportunities with the power-packed franchise (MI), Chahal was forced to go to the auction in 2014 and it turned out to be a blessing in disguise for the spinner as he was picked by RCB.



Mumbai has released young spinner Rahul Chahar and will require an experienced player to cover the place. Chahar was not on the retention list of Mumbai Indians (MI) and will head to the auction table.



The success stories of Yuzvendra Chahal are secret to none. He has been phenomenal for RCB all those years. He used to be the top wicket-taker for the franchise.?

?I am incredibly excited to be joining the new Lucknow franchise and I am very grateful for the opportunity. Since my very first tour to India in 1993, I have always loved touring, playing and coaching in India,? said Andy Flower.



<h3 id="lucknow-ipl-team-mentor-gautam-gambhir">Lucknow IPL Team Mentor - Gautam Gambhir</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/10/Gautam-Gambhir-IPL-winner-for-KKR.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-75083" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Gautam Gambhir.</figcaption></figure>



The RPSG owned Lucknow IPL team has roped in former Indian world cup winning cricketer Gautam Gambhir as the team mentor for the IPL 2022. Gambhir will work closely with the franchise in the advisory group. His records in international cricket for India are impeccable. In fact, he did exceedingly well in the Indian Premier League (IPL).



He spearheaded Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) to its only two IPL titles in the year 2012 and 2014. His brilliant cricketing brain has been recognised by the franchise.



"I respect his [Gautam Gambhir] cricketing mind and look forward to working with him," said the Lucknow franchise owner said in a statement after the cricketer was appointed team's mentor on 18th December 2021.



<h2 id="lucknow-ipl-team-players">Lucknow IPL team Players:</h2>



The sources close to the development have reported that the Lucknow based IPL team has already pinned down on their top three players. The franchise is pretty clear with its intentions and has finalised the players it wants for the coming season.



<h3 id="captain-kl-rahul">Captain: KL Rahul</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/05/KL-Rahul.jpg" alt="Vivo IPL 2021: KL Rahul Hospitalised due to pain in his stomach, will miss a couple of games" class="wp-image-62980" /></figure>



Karnataka stumper batsman KL Rahul is likely to join the Lucknow IPL team in the next season. Rahul is reportedly Lucknow?s number one choice to be the captain of the side.&nbsp;



KL Rahul has already parted ways with Punjab Kings (PBKS). He was the skipper of PBKS but he couldn?t fetch good results for his team. He was sloppy with his tactics and failed to use his resources to their strength which the experts and cricket pundits pointed out.



However, the cricketer was fantastic with his batting abilities. His sheer consistency heaped praises from all around the world. He scored 626 runs in the IPL 2021, 670 runs in the IPL 2020 and 593 runs in the IPL 2019.

<h3 id="ishan-kishan">Ishan Kishan:</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/12/Ishan-Kishan-1.jpg" alt="Image Source: BCCI" class="wp-image-81805" /></figure>



The Lucknow based IPL franchise is also looking to have young wicketkeeper-batsman Ishan Kishan on board. The Jharkhand batsman is certainly on Lucknow?s radar for the IPL 2022.



Ishan was earlier released by Mumbai Indians (MI) during the player retentions. Mumbai has shown a lot of faith in youngster during his stay at the franchise. Towards the end of IPL 2021, Ishan was preferred ahead of experienced Quinton de Kock and he flipped the outcome of what could have been a forgettable season for him with his late blitz innings at the opening slot.



Kishan loves to attack the bowler upfront. He has good hitting skills and can make use of the powerplay nicely. Moreover, he can fit in with KL Rahul at the opening position.



<h3 id="kagiso-rabada">Kagiso Rabada:</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2020/11/Kagiso-Rabada-Delhi-Capitals-IPL-2021.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-21692" /></figure>



Following the selection of two domestic players, the rules say that Lucknow can now only sign an overseas player. South African pacer Kagiso Rabada is the most likeable option here for the franchise.



The experienced pacer got an axe from Delhi Capitals. DCC picked the likes of Anrich Nortje ahead of Rabada.&nbsp;



Kagiso Rabada can help in strengthening Lucknow?s bowling unit. He can spearhead the attack with other bowlers. The pacer wasn?t effective in the IPL 2021. He could only pick 15 wickets from as many matches. However, his records in the IPL 2020 and IPL 2019 speaks volumes of his skills and abilities.&nbsp;



The seasoned campaigner scalped 30 and 25 wickets in the IPL 2020 and IPL 2019 respectively. He was even the Orange cap winner in the IPL 2020.



Few Other Player Options for the Lucknow IPL team are:



Shikhar Dhawan,



Ben Stokes,



David Warner,



Shreyas Iyer, and&nbsp;



Yuzvendra Chahal.

HUR vs THU BBL 2024-25 Final Dream11 Prediction: The wait is finally over, and we will have the champion for the 14th edition of the Big Bash League (BBL 2024-25). Two teams have qualified for the final, and we will have a new champion this season. The reigning champion Brisbane Heat have been knocked out, and the final will be played between Hobart Hurricanes and Sydney Thunder.
This clash will be held at 1:45 PM on Monday at Bellerive Oval in Hobart. The Hurricanes finished the group stage at the top and beat the Sixers in the Qualifier to reach this stage. Meanwhile, the Thunder beat Melbourne Stars and Sydney Sixers in Knockout and Challenger matches to make it to the final.
But now, everything depends on this clash, as the team that wins here will lift the trophy. The Hurricanes have never won the BBL title, while the Thunder have won it once in 2015. So, the long wait of one of these two sides will end up here with this clash. This is the third game between two teams this season. The Hurricanes won one game while the other was washed out.

The marquee event of this year, ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is approaching quickly and Pakistan are busy finalizing preparations to compete as the hosts. They will be competing in a Tri-Series versus South Africa and New Zealand before the Champions Trophy and this bilateral event will act as a preparatory ground for the Mohammad Rizwan-led team. 
They have momentum on their side as they will be entering the tournament on the back of historic series wins in South Africa and Australia and also a good performance in the Tri Series will definitely increase their confidence and morale. 
Interestingly, the hosts are the only team who haven't unveiled their squad yet for the meha event of this year and questions about their unannounced squad have already started to raise and discussions have sparked. 
With explosive opener Saim Ayub struggling with an ankle fracture, several news reports have claimed that the Pakistani selectors might consider bringing in the likes of Shan Masood back into the One-Day International setup. Apart from the Test Captain, the National Team selectors might also consider bringing in some forgotten players and let's take a look at three such forgotten players who might get a chance to make their comebacks into the team in the forthcoming Champions Trophy 2025.
<h2 style="text-align: justify;">Usama Mir  </h2>
29-year-old spinner Usama Mir might find himself back in the squad for Champions Trophy 2025. With 15 scalps to his name in 12 One-Day Internationals, Usama has demonstrated his ability to outfox opposition batters with his unpredictable variations. While the duo of Sufiyan Muqeem and Abrar Ahmed have shown promise, their lack of experience in 50 over Cricket could lead the selectors to pick Usama Mir over the two above mentioned players. In List-A Cricket, the 29-year-old has dismissed 86 batters in 58 contests, which further strengthens his case. 
<h2>Shadab Khan</h2>
Once considered as the backbone of Pakistan's spin bowling unit, Shadab Khan has been away from One-Day Cricket due to a prolonged rough patch with the ball. The leg spin bowling All-rounder, with 85 scalps and 855 runs to his name in 70 One-Day Internationals, still remains a valuable asset for the Green Shirts. 
Keeping in mind the middle order struggles of the defending champions, Khan's ability to contribute with both ball &amp; bat could help him in securing a spot in Pakistan's Champions Trophy 2025 squad. His experience and a knack of performing in high-pressure situations makes him a strong contender for making a comeback to the National Team.
<h2 style="text-align: left;">Imam-ul-Haq</h2>
29-year-old Imam-ul-Haq, a reliable opening batter with a total of 3,138 One-Day International runs to his name at a good average of 48.27, last participated in an ODI match during the 2023 ODI World Cup in India. With Saim Ayub missing out due to an ankle injury and Abdullah Shafique struggling for form with the bat, the Pakistani selectors might turn to Imam in order to provide stability to the top-order. His proven track-record in ODI's make him a perfect option for the forthcoming Champions Trophy 2025.
The selection committee of Pakistan's Men's National Cricket Team faces some tough decisions ahead of 2025 Champions Trophy. While the trio of Imam, Shadab and Usama may seem like surprising picks, their skill sets and experience could prove to be very crucial on home soil. Pakistani fans eagerly await the squad announcement of the National Team and they are hoping to see a balanced team capable of defending the Champions Trophy.

3 forgotten Pakistani players the selectors might consider bringing back in the squad for the upcoming Champions Trophy 2025. They may seem like surprising picks but their skill sets and experience could prove to be very crucial on home soil.

An incredible Bollywood biopic is set to be made on the life of former legendary Indian Captain Sourav Ganguly also known by his famous nickname 'Dada'. Following the success of the biopics of Mohammad Azharuddin, Mithali Raj and Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Ganguly's story will also be seen on the big screens. It is reported that this incredible film be made with the help of a big financial budget and talks are ongoing of executing this film under a big production house. 
Actor Rajkumar Rao's name has popped up to play the role of Dada in the film. Before, there were talks of Ranbir Kapoor and then Ayushmann Khurrana to play the role of the legendary Indian captain but there's no official confirmation regarding who will get the chance to play the role of Ganguly. 
The information about the script and release date are yet to be revealed and many interesting stories of Ganguly's life will be shown in this upcoming movie. Let's take a look at five such incidents which can make this biopic even more special:
<h2>Waving Team India's shirt on the Lord's balcony</h2>
In the all-important final of the 2002 Natwest Trophy, Team India chased down the difficult target of 326 runs and defeated England and this victory proved to be a really historic one. After securing this victory, Dads took off his jersey and waved it on the famous Lord's balcony. This moment became a symbol of the new era of Indian Cricket and showing this moment can truly make the biopic of Ganguly special.
<h2>Differences with Rahul Dravid</h2>
The friendship between two legends of Indian Cricket, Sourav Ganguly and Rahul Dravid was quite famous in the world of Cricket. But when Greg Chappell became the head coach of the National Team, differences started arising between the two players. Ganguly didn't like Chappell's arbitrariness and he expressed his displeasure with Dravid that he was not saying anything to Chappell despite being the skipper. This is the main reason why there was a distance between the two.
<h3>Greg Chappell Controversy</h3>
In 2005, the controversy between coach Greg Chappell and Ganguly created a stir in the world of Cricket. The former Australian batter wrote an email to the BCCI and called Ganguly "physically &amp; mentally" unfit for handling the leadership duties of the Men in Blue. This entire controversy was leaked to the Indian media and it made a lot of headlines.
<h2>Differences with Ravi Shastri</h2>
During the selection of the head coach of the Indian Team in 2016, a dispute was created between Ravi Shastri and Sourav Ganguly. The former had given his interview through a video call and the latter didn't attend the interview through a video call. Apart from Ganguly, the likes of VVS Laxman and Sachin Tendulkar were also a part of the committee formed for the selection of the Head Coach. 
As Dada didn't attend the video call, a rhetoric was created between him and Shastri. This dispute became the main talking point in Indian Media.
<h3>Rumours of an affair with actress Nagma</h3>
During the 1999 ODI World Cup, the news of an affair between actress Nagma and Cricketer Sourav Ganguly popped up in the headlines. Although the Cricketer always denied it, the actress later confirmed the relationship and said that they had ended it in the interest of the country. Ganguly was already married and was the father of a child too at that time so the affair rumours proved to be very significant.

He has been out of Team India for a long time, finds himself out of the Ranji Team as well</a>

The life of former Indian cricket team captain Sourav Ganguly will soon be shown on the big screen in his biopic and preparations are underway to bring 'Dada's' story to Bollywood.

India head coach was mighty impress with the way young batter Tilak Varma played in the second T20I against England. The second match of the five-match series between the two heavyweights took place at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Saturday (25th January). 
Tilak Varma played one of his best innings in his career as he almost single-handedly won the game for India. The left-hander played a magnificent innings for his team and helped India win the game by the margin of just two wickets and took a 2-0 lead in the series.
Chasing the target of 166 runs, India struggled to have a good start as both the openers, Sanju Samson and Abhishek Sharma, got out early. Tilak Varma, who walked out to bat at number three played a stellar innings and held the one end despite the wickets falling at the other end. 
The Southpaw hardly got any support till Washington Sundar (26) played a key role down the order before India was left tottering at 126 for seven. But Varma showed great maturity and took the game deep even though England kept ticking with wickets at the other end. 
Tilak Varma slammed a terrific half-century but made sure that he didn't lose his focus. He played the situation pretty well and took the game to the last over. A decent support from Ravi Bishnoi in the end allowed him to win the match for his team as India won the game by two wickets. 
Tilak Varma played a magnificent innings of unbeaten 72 runs off 55 balls. The left-hander batted with a strike rate of over 130 and also slammed 4 fours and 5 sixes in his innings. His knock helped India win the game and also earned him the Player of the Match award. 
As Tilak Varma won India the match, the entire Indian dressing room was chuffed to bits. The interesting reaction came from head coach Gautam Gambhir, who was seen kissing batter on the neck. This happened when the teams were shaking hands.
